DFV Deutsche Familienversicherung AG ("DFV", "Deutsche Familienversicherung"), a fast-growing and leading digital insurance company in Europe, has placed a total of 1,326,160 new no-par value bearer shares ("New Shares") at a price of EUR 24.40 per share with institutional investors by way of a private placement in the course of the cash capital increase announced yesterday, making partial use of the authorised capital and excluding shareholders' subscription rights. The capital increase was significantly oversubscribed. The company's share capital increases from EUR 26,523,240.00 by EUR 2,652,320.00 or just under 10.0% to EUR 29,175,560.00. The free float of the DFV share thus increases from the current 12.28% to approx. 21.1%. The company will receive gross proceeds of around EUR 32.35 million from the capital increase.

"I would like to thank all investors who have placed their trust in us. The successful capital increase shows that the high scalability of our business model and our growth potential in the digital insurance market continues to be recognised. The successful stock market debut of the American InsurTech Lemonade also illustrates the high upside potential for our share," commented Dr. Stefan Knoll, Chairman of the Management Board and founder of Deutsche Familienversicherung.

The expected net proceeds from the capital increase are to be used by the company to continue its current growth strategy, including the establishment of new risk carriers and accordingly the establishment of a health insurer and a property/casualty insurer as well as the development of new products. These measures are the basic prerequisites for the expansion of the product portfolio in the field of health insurance and the resulting increased market potential. Within the scope of this strategy the foundation of a life insurer is to follow in 2021. With the new risk carriers the Frankfurt-based company will start to build up a Group structure and thus leave the role of a start-up.

The fundamental target of the strategy is to accelerate the growth course taken after it becomes apparent that the 100,000 new contracts will be reached again in 2020.

The new shares from the capital increase are expected to be included in the existing listing in the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange without a prospectus on July 8.

MainFirst Bank AG acted as Sole Global Coordinator and Sole Bookrunner for the private placement.
